With some lenders now requiring Loan-linked ISDA swaps to hedge the interest rate on their borrowings it is increasingly important for housing associations to understand them. 

Interest rate swaps are helpful for a borrower who wants to hedge against the risk of interest rate fluctuations, reduce the cost of borrowing, or benefit from different market conditions. For example, a borrower who has a loan with a variable interest rate can swap it with another party who has a fixed interest rate loan, and pay a fixed amount instead of a variable one. This can protect the borrower from rising interest rates and provide more certainty about their future payments.
